Description
Transitional Green Address Unfunded Lealana 10 Litecoin
First Auction Offering
Unfunded 2013 Lealana 10 Litecoin. Firstbits LPwTBhXZ5. Buyer Funded. Green Address, Non-Serialized. Silver. Proof-68 Deep Cameo (PCGS).
Unfunded and non-loaded. This buyer-funded example with a green firstbits address is a great rarity in the Litecoin series and represents the very first example of the variety we have handled. The transitional green firstbits address was instituted in May 2014 to comply with new federal regulations. Issued on a 30 mm planchet of 1/2 ounce of .999 fine silver and minted by Northwest Territorial Mint, the obverse features the Litecoin symbol, date, and denomination while the reverse features a holographic sticker with the firstbits address visible near the center and Buyer Funded laser engraved above. First introduced as Lealana Litecoin, the Lealana series was released to collectors and investors in June 2013 as a counterpart to the Casascius physical bitcoins introduced in 2011. It was invented and issued by Noah Luis of Honolulu, Hawaii, who is perhaps better recognized within the crypto community by his internet handle "smoothie."
